Peace On Earth; Isaiah 9:6 Luke 2:8-14

Isaiah 9: 6 Luke 2: 8-14 Sometimes I worry that we get confused as to the meaning of these accounts of Christ. “Peace on Earth” is not wishful thinking. “Peace on Earth” is not an ideal to be strived for. “Peace on Earth” is not a prophecy to be enjoyed by future ages. No, “Peace on Earth” is ...read more

Bringing A Sinner To Repentance - Luke 15:11-32 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Oct 16, 2024

Why Are Jesus' Genealogies In Matthew And Luke Different?

Contributed by Steven W. Satterfield on Mar 21, 2023

From https://zondervanacademic.com/blog/why-are-jesus-genealogies-in-matthew-and-luke-different This post is adapted from the Four Portraits, One Jesus: Jesus’ Birth, Childhood, and Early Ministry, a free online course taught by Dr. Mark Strauss. My notes will be added later.

The birth narratives in both Matthew and Luke help answer the question, “Who is Jesus and where did he come from?” One of the ways each book does this is by recounting Jesus’ genealogy. The problem is: the genealogies are different. The Old Testament predicted that the Messiah would come from the ...read more

Lesson 2: An Announcement Of Preparation
